Introduction

This reference guide documents the OpenManage Server Administrator Common Information Model (CIM) provider contained in

the Management Object File (MOF) dccim32.mof.

CIM provides a conceptual model for describing manageable objects in a systems management environment. CIM is a modeling

tool rather than a programming language. CIM provides the structure for organizing objects into a model of a managed

environment. For modeling a managed environment, CIM makes available a set of abstract and concrete classes of objects.

These classes model the basic characteristics of systems, networks, and applications, as well as groupings of management-

related data.

For more information about CIM, see the Distributed Management Task Force (DMTF) website at dmtf.org and the Microsoft

website at microsoft.com.

NOTE: This document includes sections or data that is not applicable to the PowerEdge MX740x and PowerEdge MX840c.

Topics:

• Server Administrator

• Documenting CIM Classes and Their Properties

• Common Properties of Classes

• Other Documents You May Need

• Typographical Conventions

Server Administrator

Server Administrator provides a suite of systems management information for keeping track of your networked systems. In

addition to providing systems management agents that are independent of the management console, Server Administrator

supports these systems management standards: CIM and Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).

In addition to supporting systems management industry standards, Server Administrator provides additional systems

management information about the specific components of your Dell EMC device.

Documenting CIM Classes and Their Properties

The Dell CIM provider extends support to Dell-specific software and hardware components. The Dell MOF defines the classes

for the Dell CIM provider. All of the supported classes and properties in the MOF are documented in this guide.

The following subsections define some of the basic building blocks of CIM classes that are used in describing the dccim32

provider name. These subsections also explain how the elements used in describing these classes are organized. This section

does not document the entire CIM schema, but only those classes and properties supported by the dccim32 provider. The list of

properties for each supported class varies greatly.

The property values being presented could be NULL or empty string on some systems, although in general, some non-empty

values can be expected. Key properties (listed below) always carry non-empty values. It is recommended that you use only the

following properties as key attributes:

● CIM_PhysicalElement: CreationClassName, Tag

● CIM_System: CreationClassName, Name

● CIM_LogicalDevice: SystemCreationClassName, SystemName, CreationClassName, DeviceID

● CIM_Dependency: Antecedent, Dependent

● CIM_SoftwareElement: Name, Version, SoftwareElementState, SoftwareElementID, TargetOperatingSystem

● CIM_SoftwareFeature: IdentifyingNumber, ProductName, Vendor, Version, Name

● CIM_IRQ: CSCreationClassName, CSName, CreationClassName, IRQNumber

● CIM_MemoryMappedIO: CSCreationClassName, CSName, CreationClassName, StartingAddress

● CIM_DMA: CSCreationClassName, CSName, CreationClassName, DMAChannel

6 Introduction

● CIM_RedundancyGroup: CreationClassName, Name

● DELL_EsmLog: RecordNumber

● DELL_PostLog: RecordNumber

● DELL_BIOSExtensions: systemBIOSCharacteristics

● DELL_BIOSSettings: DisplayName

● CIM_ServiceAccessPoint: SystemCreationClassName, SystemName, CreationClassName, Name

Base Classes

The classes listed in the Server Administrator CIM provider class hierarchy do not have a parent property. These base classes do

not derive from another class. The base classes are:

● CIM_ManagedSystemElement

● CIM_Dependency

● DELL_EsmLog

● DELL_PostLog

● DELL_CMApplication

● DELL_CMDevice

● DELL_CMDeviceApplications

● DELL_CMInventory

● DELL_CMOS

● DELL_CMProductInfo

The CIM_ManagedSystemElement class is the base class for the system element hierarchy from which all other CIM classes

are derived. As a result, CIM_ManagedSystemElement has no parent. Examples of managed system elements include

software components such as files, devices such as hard drives and controllers, and physical subcomponents of devices such as

chip sets and cards. For the CIM_ManagedSystemElement properties, see Caption, CreationClassName, Description, Name,

and Status in Common Properties of Classes

The Dell-defined classes are not defined in the official schema by the DMTF, the industry group that defines the standards for

CIM, and hence do not have parent classes. CIM_Dependency does not have a parent class because it is a relationship or

association between two managed system elements.

Parent Classes

Most classes in the dccim32 provider document both a Class Name and a Parent Class property. The parent class is the class

from which any given class inherits its core properties. For example, the CIM_Controller class has the

CIM_LogicalDevice class as its parent, and has various types of controllers (CIM_ParallelController,

CIM_SerialController) as its children.

Classes That Describe Relationships

Classes that derive from CIM_Dependency have CIM_Dependency as their parent class, but they are documented in terms

of antecedent and dependent elements in a relationship rather than in terms of common properties. Consider the following

relationship between two CIM_ManagedSystemElements:

Table 1. Classes That Describe Relationships

Element Description

Antecedent CIM_PackageCurrentSensor

Dependent CIM_PhysicalPackage

The CIM_PackageCurrentSensor class monitors an entire physical package, such as all the components contained in a

given system chassis. The CIM_PhysicalPackage class is dependent on the CIM_PackageCurrentSensor class for this

monitoring function.

Introduction

CIM_Physical Element

CIM_PhysicalElement is a CIM-defined class. The CIM_PhysicalElement class contains the subclasses shown in Figure

CIM_PhysicalElement Class Structure

Topics:

• CIM_PhysicalElement

• CIM_PhysicalPackage

• CIM_PhysicalFrame

• CIM_Chassis

• DELL_Chassis

• CIM_PhysicalComponent

• CIM_Chip

• CIM_PhysicalMemory

• CIM_PhysicalConnector

• CIM_Slot

CIM_PhysicalElement

Subclasses of the CIM_PhysicalElement class listed in Table below define any component of a system that has a distinct

physical identity. Physical elements are tangible managed system elements (usually actual hardware items) that have a physical

manifestation of some sort. By contrast, processes, files, and logical devices are not classified as physical elements. A managed

system element is not necessarily a discrete component. A single card (which is a type of physical element) can host more than

one logical device.

One card, for example, could implement both a modem and a local area network (LAN) adapter. In this case, the card would be

represented by a single physical element associated with multiple logical devices.

The following table lists the CIM Class Name, Parent Class and describes the CIM physical element properties along with the

data type.

Class Name: CIM_PhysicalElement

Parent Class: CIM_ManagedSystemElement

2

CIM_Physical Element 11

Table 3. CIM_PhysicalElement Properties

Property Description Data Type

CreationClassName See Common Properties of Classes

Manufacturer See Common Properties of Classes

Model The name by which the physical element

is generally known.

string

SerialNumber A manufacturer-allocated number used

to identify the physical element.

string

Tag Uniquely identifies the physical element

and serves as the element’s key. The

Tag property can contain information

such as asset tag or serial number data.

The key for a physical element is placed

very high in the object hierarchy in order

to identify the hardware/entity

independently, regardless of the physical

placement in or on cabinets, adapters,

and so on. For example, a hotswappable

or removable component can be taken

from its containing (scoping) package

and be temporarily unused. The object

still continues to exist and may even be

inserted into a different scoping

container. Therefore, the key for the

physical element is an arbitrary string

that is defined independently of any

placement or location-oriented

hierarchy.

string

CIM_PhysicalPackage

The CIM_PhysicalPackage class listed in Table below represents physical elements that contain or host other components.

Examples are a rack enclosure or an adapter card with multiple functions.

The following table lists the CIM_PhysicalPackage properties that represent the physical elements that contain or host other

components.

Class Name:CIM_PhysicalPackage

Parent Class: CIM_PhysicalElement

Table 4. CIM_PhysicalPackage Properties

Property Description Data Type

Removable A CIM_PhysicalPackage is removable if it

is designed to be taken in and out of the

physical container in which it is normally

found without impairing the function of

the overall package.

Boolean

Replaceable A CIM_PhysicalPackage is replaceable if it

is possible to substitute a physically

different element for the original element,

CIM_Physical Element 19

CIM_PhysicalConnector

The CIM_PhysicalConnector class listed in Physical Connector Properties includes physical elements such as plugs, jacks,

or buses that connect physical elements. Any object that can be used to connect and transmit signals or power between two or

more physical elements is a member of this class. For example, slots and D-shell connectors are types of physical connectors.

See Connector Type Values for a list of valid connector type values.

The following table describes the properties and data type of the CIM PhysicalConnector class.

Class Name: CIM_PhysicalConnector

Parent Class: CIM_PhysicalElement

Property Description Data Type

ConnectorPinout A free-form string describing the pin

configuration and signal usage of a

physical connector.

string

ConnectorType An array of integers defining the type of

physical connector. An array is specified

to allow the description of

“combinations” of connector

information. For example, one array

entry could specify RS-232, another

DB-25, and a third entry could define the

connector as male. See Connector Type

Values for the values of the

ConnectorType property.
